Presumably some one has mistakenly believed that emailing mailman-users 
will get them removed from some mailing list hosted by 1 Ultram lists.

Just one MORE REASON to stop letting non-subscriber messages that don't say 
"mailman" in them be posted to the mail-man users list.

Just because there is a " logn standing tradition for support lists for 
products to
not be closed to non-subscribers" (sic) doesn't mean that we have to follow 
this tradition for all time.  There was once a long tradition of having 
every SMTP server open to relay to anyone too.  That was changed, because 
it needed to be changed.  Letting anyone post anything to this list also 
needs to be changed, before you run off all the people who are on this list 
to discuss "mailman user" issues.
